Answer;

C) the amount of time that the two species have been evolving apart

Explanation;

-Scientists can use relaxed-clock methods to deal with variation in the rate of the molecular clock. By measuring the patterns of evolutionary rate variation among organisms, they can also gain valuable insight into the biological processes that determine how quickly the molecular clock ticks.

- The molecular clock hypothesis states that DNA and protein sequences evolve at a rate that is relatively constant over time and among different organisms. A direct consequence of this constancy is that the genetic difference between any two species is proportional to the time since these species last shared a common ancestor.

zvonat [6]

Answer;

-No more; no more

Compared with fraternal twins, identical twins are no more similar in physical appearance. Compared with unrelated look-alike pairs of individuals, identical twins report no more similar personalities.

Explanation;

-Compared with fraternal twins, identical twins are much more similar in extraversion, neuroticism and temperament.

-Since fraternal twins are 2 separate fertilized eggs, they usually develop two separate amniotic sacs, placentas, and supporting structures. Identical, or monozygotic, twins may or may not share the same amniotic sac, depending on how early the single fertilized egg divides into two.

Coach Damien notices that some of his football players drink more water than others before Friday night games. He is interested
max2010maxim [7]

The independent variable is the amount of water consumed by the football players.

The dependent variable is the football players' endurance, measured by how many times they can run up and down the bleachers before catching their breaths.

The coach's hypothesis was that the more water consumed, the more endurance the players will have.

There is not a control group present in this experiment, but it would be the set of players who did not drink a bottle of water before practice.

The experimental group is the set of players who did drink a bottle of water before practice.

The constants in the experiment are the operational definitions of endurance (how he measures their endurance), the amount of water each player drinks throughout the week, and the players used in the experiment.

The lack of a set control group poses a threat to the accuracy of the experiment's results.

The octreotide drip is started at 1400. after infusing at the ordered rate for 2 hours, the prescriber asks the nurse to titrate
ELEN [110]
You just have to divide 1400 divided by 50 mcg which is equal to 28. This is just simply because once you get the quotient, then you will get the number of hours needed for the initial bag to last.
